FENG'S RELATIONS WITH NANKING

TROOP MOVEMENTS

THE CHINA MAIL,

Hankow, Yesterday. Hauch Tupih has returned to Honan in order to report to General Feng Yu-hsiang the result of his interview with Marshal Chiang Kai- shek.

So far as can be ascertained, cordial relations continue on the surface, but a disquieting note is struck by the statement of a priest arriving from Slan, to the effect that the roads from Tungkwan to Sian are crowded with Kuominchun troops withdrawing from Honan and Shantung-Reuter.

A Japanese Opinion

Tokyo, Yesterday. In spite of the sudden withdrawal of General Feng Yu-bsiang's troops, official circles appear confident that no further postponement of the Japanese evacuation of Shantung

will be necessary.

The War Office spokesman ex- presses the opinion that the "Caris- Lian General's" action may be bene- ficial for the preservation of peace, as the danger of friction arising from divided authority is now re- moved, 1ཐ Marshal Chiang Kai- shek's troops henceforth will alone be responsible.--Reuter.

He could not for the life of him see why a man should not have, if he chose, an ocea- sional glass of beer. He thought it was going too far to interfere with personal liberty.
